Acts 1
1 The former narrative I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus both did and taught from the beginning
Ne osiepna Theofilo: E kitapa mokwongo ne andikoe gik moko duto mane Yesu otimo kendo opuonjo,
2 until the day in which, after he had through the Holy Spirit given commandments to the apostles whom he had chosen, he was taken up;
nyaka chop chiengʼ mane okawe motere e polo, bangʼ chiwo chik ni joote mane oseyiero kuom teko mar Roho Maler.
3 to whom also he showed himself living, after he had suffered, by many sure proofs, appearing to them during forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God.
Bangʼ kane osesande, ne onyisore en owuon ne jogi, kendo nochiwo ranyisi mangʼeny masiro ni ongima. Ne ofwenyorenigi kuom ndalo piero angʼwen ka owuoyo kuom pinyruodh Nyasaye.
4 And while in assembly with them, he commanded them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for what had been promised by the Father, which [[said he]] ye heard from me;
Chiengʼ moro achiel kane oyudo ochiemo kodgi, nowachonegi niya, “Kik uwuog Jerusalem, to rituru mich mane Wuonwa osingore ni nomiu, ma usewinja ka awuoyo kuome;
5 for John indeed baptized with water, but ye will be baptized in the Holy Spirit not many days hence.
nimar Johana nobatiso ji gi pi, to un bangʼ kinde manok ibiro batisou gi Roho Maler.”
6 They therefore, having come together, asked him, saying, Lord, art thou at this time about to restore the kingdom to Israel?
Kuom mano, kane gisechokore kaachiel, negipenje niya, “Ruoth, kindeni ema ibiro duogo pinyruoth e lwet jo-Israel koso?”
7 But he said to them, It belongeth not to you to know times or seasons, which the Father appointed by his own authority.
Nodwokogi niya, “Ok en wachu mar ngʼeyo ndalo kata kinde ma Wuoro oseketo gi tekone owuon.
8 But ye will receive power when the Holy Spirit hath come upon you; and ye will be my witnesses, both in Jerusalem and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and to the end of the earth.
To ubiro yudo teko ka Roho Maler obiro kuomu; kendo unubed joneno maga ei Jerusalem kendo ei Judea duto gi Samaria, kod tungʼ piny gi tungʼ piny.”
9 And having thus spoken, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight.
Bangʼ wacho mano, nokawe motere e polo, mana ka ginene, kendo polo noime mi olalnegi, makoro ne ok ginyal nene.
10 And while they were looking earnestly into heaven as he went up, lo! two men stood by them in white apparel,
Kane oyudo pod gichomo wengegi e polo, ka gingʼiyo kaka odhi, apoya nono, negipo ka ji ariyo morwako lewni marochere ochungʼ bathgi.
11 who said, Men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? This Jesus, who hath been taken up from you into heaven, will come in the same manner in which ye beheld him going into heaven.
Jogi nowachonegi niya, “Jo-Galili, angʼo momiyo uchungʼ ka ungʼiyo polo? Yesu owuon-ni, makoro osegol kuomu oter e polo, biro duogo kendo, mana kaka usenene kodhino.”
12 Then they returned to Jerusalem, from the mount called Olivet, which is near Jerusalem, within a sabbath-day's journey.
Bangʼ mano joote nowuok modok Jerusalem, ka gia ewi got miluongo ni Zeituni, ma en kama bor madirom kilomita achiel koa Jerusalem.
13 And when they had come in, they went up into the upper room where they were making their abode, namely, Peter and John and James and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew, James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon the zealot, and Judas the brother of James.
Kane gichopo, negidhi nyaka kama negidakie, ei ot man malo ewi gorofa. Joma ne ni kanyo ne gin: Petro gi Johana, Jakobo gi Andrea; Filipo gi Thoma, Bartholomayo gi Mathayo, Jakobo wuod Alfayo, gi Simon ja-Zilote, kod Judas wuod Jakobo.
14 These all continued with one accord in prayer, with women and Mary the mother of Jesus, and his brothers.
Giduto ne gin e achiel ka ginano e lamo, kaachiel gi mon moko, kod Maria min Yesu gi owete Yesu.
15 And in those days Peter stood up in the midst of the brethren, and said, (the number of the names together was about one hundred and twenty, )
E kindeno Petro nochungʼ e kind joma oyie (mane nyalo romo ji mia gi piero ariyo)
16 Brethren, it was necessary that this scripture should be fulfilled, which the Holy Spirit through the mouth of David spoke before concerning Judas, who became guide to those who took Jesus.
mi nowachonegi niya, “Owetena, Ndiko nyaka ne chop kare, mana kaka Roho Maler nohulo chon gi dho Daudi, kuom Judas mane otelo ni joma nomako Yesu.
17 For he was numbered among us, and obtained the allotment of this ministry.
Chutho, Judas ne en achiel kuomwa, kendo en bende ne en-gi kare e tichwani.”
18 Now this man purchased a field with the wages of the iniquity; and falling headlong he burst asunder in the middle, and all his bowels gushed out.
Judas nongʼiewo lowo gi pesa mane oyudo kuom richone, to kanyo ema noruomboree piny, kendo bund iye nobarore mi nyimbi iye opukore oko.
19 And it became known to all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that that field is called in their own tongue, Aceldamach, that is, Field of Blood.
Ji duto mane ni Jerusalem nowinjo wachno, mine giluongo puodhono gi dhogi ni Akeldama, ma tiende ni, Puoth Remo.
20 For it is written in the book of Psalms, “Let his habitation be made desolate, and let no one dwell therein;” and, “Let another take his office.”
Petro nodhi nyime kawacho niya, “Ondik e Kitap Zaburi kama: “‘Mad miechgi dongʼ gunda; ngʼato angʼata kik yiene dag e iye,’ kendo ondik niya, “‘Mad ngʼat machielo kaw tije.’
21 Of these men, therefore, who accompanied us all the time that the Lord Jesus went in and out among us,
Kuom mano, ber mondo wayier ngʼato achiel e kind joma osebedo kodwa, chakre kinde mane Ruoth Yesu ochako bedo kodwa nyaka chop kinde mane okawe e dierwa.
22 from the baptism of John until the day when he was taken up from us, must one be made a witness with us of his resurrection.
Ngʼatno nyaka bed ngʼat mane nitie chakre ndalo Johana Ja-batiso nyaka odiechiengʼ mane okaw Yesu ogol e dierwa. Nimar achiel kuom jogi nyaka bed janeno kuom chierne kaachiel kodwa.”
23 And they proposed two, Joseph called Barsabbas, who was surnamed Justus, and Matthias.
Eka negichiwo nying ji ariyo: Josef miluongo ni Barsaba (ma bende niluongo ni Justo) kod Mathias.
24 And they prayed saying, Thou, Lord, who knowest the hearts of all men, show which of these two thou hast chosen
Bangʼe ne gilemo niya, “Ruoth, ingʼeyo chuny ji duto. Nyiswae kuom ji ariyogi ngʼat miseyiero
25 to take the part of this ministry and apostleship, from which Judas by transgression fell away, that he might go to his own place.
mondo okaw tich mar bedo jaote mane Judas ojwangʼo oweyo kane odhi kare mane ochanne.”
26 And they cast lots for them; and the lot fell upon Matthias, and he was numbered with the eleven apostles.
Eka negigoyo ombulu, kendo ombulu nolwar kuom Mathias. Omiyo nomede kuom joote apar gachiel mamoko.
